Beautiful Art Nouveau flower brooch made of silver, enamelled and with marcasites.
Enameling is an ancient and widely used technology. The ancient Egyptians applied enamel to pottery and stone objects. The ancient Greeks, Celts, Russians and Chinese also used enamelling processes on metal objects. Enamel is the colourful result of fusing powdered glass to a substrate through firing, usually between 750 and 850 degrees Celsius. The powder melts and flows and hardens to form a smooth, durable glass-like coating on metal, glass or ceramic.
The brooch is marked sterling for 1st grade silver.
Dating: ca. 1910-1930.
Weight: 21.7 grams. Dimensions: 4.5 x 6 cm.
